The Stars and Stripes newspaper recently published an article on the M.I.A.
Recovery Network-located in Houston Texas. This is an online database that
could be used to identify unknown World War II-era Service members buried
around the world. The directory cross-references information about recovered
unknown troops with missing service members' attributes is expected to go
live shortly. The MIA Recovery Network recently announced a partnership
with the Sons of Liberty Museum and the Army Air Corps Library and Museum.

I contacted the M.I.A. Recovery Network and they graciously provided links
for four main databases: Sons of Liberty: MIAs & buried-unknowns; Army Air
Corps Museum: MIA and buried unknowns and their search military records.

As of its launching, announced December 7, 2017, this material accounted for
approximately 25% of the MIAs that still remain from World War II. Search
through records of Army (including Paratrooper and Armored Divisions) Navy,
Marine and Coast Guard MIAs.

There still remain many numbers of citizen soldiers from various conflicts
classified as unknown soldiers. These are unidentified recovered and buried
remains. These who gave the ultimate sacrifice are found in American Battle
Monument cemeteries around the world and even national cemeteries in the
U.S.

cases, please contact: http://www.sonsoflibertymuseum.org/contact.cfm
